The rotary encoder is mounted to a non-moving part (A-stand) with pulleys and belt to sense the angular movement of the swinging bell axle.
The rotary encoder is mounted to a non-moving part (A-stand) with pulleys and belt to sense the angular movement of the swinging bell axle. A value to enter for the Transmission parameter in the program will be provided based on the pulley diameters.


For rotary encoder systems, verify that the label on the CPU chip of the motor control system says "SENSOR."
A separate logic translation board is supplied in a weatherproof box and may be used as a junction box at the bell location.
 
There are four wires in the encoder cable:
 
Green to input '''A''' on the translator
Gray to input '''B''' on the translator
Brown to input '''+V''' on the translator
White to input '''0V''' on the translator
 
The translator outputs wire one to one to the motion controller sensor inputs: '''P''' (pulse), '''D''' (direction), '''+''' (positive power), '''-''' (negative power).
 
For rotary encoder systems, verify that the label on the CPU chip of the motor control system says "SENSOR." Use the [[IntelliSwing_Rotary_installation#Programming_the_controller|rotary motor programming procedure]].
